Note of advice:

If freeping near where piano-legs is actually present, avoid costumes with face-covering masks, incliding the classic sheet with eye-holes.
White face paint probably would be more to the liking of the Secret service.

Or maybe I am being overly paranoid.

Good idea.

I was also concerned about us looking like Ku Klux Klansmen...

How ELSE can we dress up like ghosts, in a CREATIVE, non-threatening way?

[Miss Marple]

Dress as Marley's ghost. Pale face paint and some chains dangling should be good enough.

Plus, if you remember, Marley said he had forged those chains while on earth because of his love of money.

I think you're right about the police not allowing face covering masks. I saw the police going after some of the anti-President Bush nuts who were wearing masks at the Oscars rally. Plus, I wouldn't stand near anyone who even remotely resembled a sheets wearing Senator Byrd type.

I like your idea about LA (heart) W. banner. I'm going to try and make a huge one. Want to help me hold it, my Romanian brother?

Or , go as Vince Foster. Anyone know a place selling his rubber mask? :-))

Mustang sends from "Malpaso News"

Make sure your sheet has "Casper the Friendly Ghost" written in a label across the chest (serious suggestion here). I do like the idea of "white face" paint - easily found in costume/party shops with the Halloween facepaint section.

If it was close to Halloween, I would suggest picking up some "Casper the Friendly Ghost" false-face masks at Wal-Mart.

Wear a black sheet, wince she and her infamous husband are from the "dark side"

Ummmm, children's Holloween costumes??

...especially skeletons. {g}

[NorseWood]

Get a photo of Vince Foster and make a mask of it. That would be one ghost that would get her attention.

[Doctor Raoul]

I'd do "devil" rather than "ghost" unless you can get "Casper" masks.

A devil holding a "I Sold My Soul To Hillary" sign is a good theme.

Or Hillary (mask) in a military uniform and beret with a RODHAM HUSSEIN sign.
